Brake Hydraulics

If your brake pedal is getting harder to push you may have a faulty vacuum pump in your brake booster system. Used on power brake cars, they accept a vacuum hose and pump from the engine manifold, and use that vacuum pressure to assist in the movement of the master cylinder.

If your ABS is not working correctly it might be one of your control units. The ABS control unit processes information from the various sensors to properly modulate hydraulic pressure.

ABS Sensors and Relays

The ABS sensors and relays measure the different information within the braking system and send the information to the ABS control unit. If your ABS is starting to act up check your sensors and relays right away.

This innovative brake bleeding device utilizes a hand pump to pressurize the brake fluid system for an easy one-person operation. A small gauge on the front of the brake fluid reservoir indicates pressure. The very large reservoir can hold about two quarts of brake fluid - more than enough for most brake flushing and bleeding jobs. The bleeder is a very useful and cost-effective tool to have in your collection. A pressure bleeder is much better than a vacuum-style bleeder because it will not cause bubbles to form in your brake lines. All bleeders come with a full 1 year warranty.
